9 more weeks, is $5000 enough? Options

[shin]

guys, i've been getting alot of information and help from people in this forum, i'll really like to thank you all. but just want to know if i'll be really for the swap 9 weeks later, my budget's $5000(usd), not sure if it's enough, gonna order the clip from Venus Auto. here's the break down

Clip - $1500
Shipping to NYC - $878 ( i think it's really expensive, they said it includes a liftgate )
Labor - $1000 ( anyone here who could charge me cheaper than that i'll be more than happy to pay you )

balance now = $3378
remaining budget = $1622

what else would i need to get? i think i'll use the stock GT tranny for the time being, thought of getting a HKS SSQV BOV, Roo from bullet proof automotive was telling me that i'll need to get a FMIC, checked the price on EBAY that it's going around $300, how much would custom piping for the FMIC cost? i thought of getting the boost controller, and safc. please enlighten me wise ones.

dont forget about the exhaust shop, and you KNOW you'll want a custom cat-back.
like he said about the tune-up, definately spark plugs, filters, and such
but also get the belts while you can.

if i were you i'd save up another $700ish and get the HKS lightweight flywheel wheel for while you are down there...actually if you plan for the e153 you'd save money by just waiting till you have the dough for that too...
but if you go that route, apparently you need more than just the tranny if you get the 93+ tranny.
